Overview
As a diverse community with high expectations on service delivery coupled with being a primary tourist destination in the State, Public toilets play a critical role in supporting an active and vibrant community space.
Clean & well-presented facilities complete with minimum standards for internal fixtures that meet standards and expectation are essential for ensuring social, recreational and commercial activity in any community.
Hepburn Shire is responsible for toilet and change room facilities across a wide area and many communities. Council recognises that many facilities have not kept up with expectations and is committing significant funding to the improved management and upgrade of toilet facilities to support our community.
Concept
To ensure high standard public amenities are provided across the Shire and that they are provided in a cost effective and consistent manner a modular design concept has been created. This modular concept is fully adaptable and versatile design able to provide a range of facilities tailored to each location. The design allows off-site construction of the building to proceed concurrently to the on-site works prior to transportation of the structure and installation on site.
